In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix potential deadlock when releasing mids
All release_mid() callers seem to hold a reference of @mid so there is
no need to call kref_put(&mid->refcount, __release_mid) under
@server->mid_lock spinlock. If they don't, then an use-after-free bug
would have occurred anyways.
By getting rid of such spinlock also fixes a potential deadlock as
shown below

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gfs2: Fix slab-use-after-free in gfs2_qd_dealloc
In gfs2_put_super(), whether withdrawn or not, the quota should
be cleaned up by gfs2_quota_cleanup().
Otherwise, struct gfs2_sbd will be freed before gfs2_qd_dealloc (rcu
callback) has run for all gfs2_quota_data objects, resulting in
use-after-free.
Also, gfs2_destroy_threads() and gfs2_quota_cleanup() is already called
by gfs2_make_fs_ro(), so in gfs2_put_super(), after calling
gfs2_make_fs_ro(), there is no need to call them again.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
virtio-blk: fix implicit overflow on virtio_max_dma_size
The following codes have an implicit conversion from size_t to u32:
(u32)max_size = (size_t)virtio_max_dma_size(vdev);
This may lead overflow, Ex (size_t)4G -> (u32)0. Once
virtio_max_dma_size() has a larger size than U32_MAX, use U32_MAX
instead.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: gspca: cpia1: shift-out-of-bounds in set_flicker
Syzkaller reported the following issue:
UBSAN: shift-out-of-bounds in drivers/media/usb/gspca/cpia1.c:1031:27
shift exponent 245 is too large for 32-bit type 'int'
When the value of the variable "sd->params.exposure.gain" exceeds the
number of bits in an integer, a shift-out-of-bounds error is reported. It
is triggered because the variable "currentexp" cannot be left-shifted by
more than the number of bits in an integer. In order to avoid invalid
range during left-shift, the conditional expression is added.

Do not loop over ring headers in hci_dma_irq_handler() that are not
allocated and enabled in hci_dma_init(). Otherwise out of bounds access
will occur from rings->headers[i] access when i >= number of allocated

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi: Fix null dereference on suspend
A race condition exists where a synchronous (noqueue) transfer can be
active during a system suspend. This can cause a null pointer
dereference exception to occur when the system resumes.
Example order of events leading to the exception:
1. spi_sync() calls __spi_transfer_message_noqueue() which sets
ctlr->cur_msg
2. Spi transfer begins via spi_transfer_one_message()
3. System is suspended interrupting the transfer context
4. System is resumed
6. spi_controller_resume() calls spi_start_queue() which resets cur_msg
to NULL
7. Spi transfer context resumes and spi_finalize_current_message() is
called which dereferences cur_msg (which is now NULL)
Wait for synchronous transfers to complete before suspending by
acquiring the bus mutex and setting/checking a suspend flag.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
arm64: Restrict CPU_BIG_ENDIAN to GNU as or LLVM IAS 15.x or newer
Prior to LLVM 15.0.0, LLVM's integrated assembler would incorrectly
byte-swap NOP when compiling for big-endian, and the resulting series of
bytes happened to match the encoding of FNMADD S21, S30, S0, S0.
This went unnoticed until commit:
34f66c4c4d5518c1 ("arm64: Use a positive cpucap for FP/SIMD")
Prior to that commit, the kernel would always enable the use of FPSIMD
early in boot when __cpu_setup() initialized CPACR_EL1, and so usage of
FNMADD within the kernel was not detected, but could result in the
corruption of user or kernel FPSIMD state.
After that commit, the instructions happen to trap during boot prior to
FPSIMD being detected and enabled, e.g.
